5 out of 5 stars Hang Five - Stars That Is!.......2003-09-15

The Lively Ones were an aptly named group, since they played every song with enthusiasm and passion. Many surf instrumental groups only lasted long enough to put out a few singles or one album. The Lively Ones recorded five albums in little more than a year. This generous collection of 24 songs clocks in at one hour and four minutes. "High Tide (Tranquilizer)" starts out as anything but tranquil. The saxophone compliments the main melody played by the guitar, much like a background singer sings harmony. "Walkin' The Board," "Goofy Foot (Surf Battle)" and "Guitarget (Hotdoggen)" rock along like a surfer riding the curl of a big wave. In their rocking version of Dick Dale's "Misirlou," the saxophone plays the trumpet's part to great effect. The Lively Ones are best known for their outstanding rendition of the song "Surf Rider," which was featured on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack. That song was written by Nokie Edwards of the Ventures and recorded by the Ventures, as well as several other groups. The arrangement and performance of "Surf Rider" by the Lively Ones remains the definitive version. I highly recommend this lively collection of great surf instrumental songs!
